In a sense you are asking the question backwards. Women have an evolutionary adaptation that allows for efficient storage of subcutaneous fat when compared to other primates. It’s a highly beneficial adaptation since it increases the likelihood of a successful pregnancy in times of caloric stress.
Men on the other hand are not able to store much subcutaneous fat. Additional calories are stored as visceral fat which directly contributes to heart disease and diabetes.
